Mechanical Engineering: The torque converter is a fluid coupling that transfers rotating power from a prime mover to a rotating driven load.
Civil Engineering: The reinforced concrete structure shall be designed to withstand a seismic acceleration of 0.3g.
Electrical Engineering: The circuit breaker must trip within 0.1 seconds when the short-circuit current exceeds 10kA.
Common challenges in engineering translation:
1. Terminology consistency
2. Unit conversion
3. Technical specifications interpretation
4. Industry standards compliance
